The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

You're a cybernetic war machine blasting through waves of mechanical angels with dual-wielded guns, dashing and wall-running in a score-chasing arena that gets harder the more you risk.

What players say

Players praise the fast movement and the critical mechanic that rewards speed, but note that the progression system in Demon mode starts slow until upgrades unlock better mobility. All enemies are flying, which some find limiting. The game is addictive but lacks variety in levels.
